“…Elham will discuss the two‐phase qualitative and participatory “information experience design” research approach which bridges theory to practice in the information use domain (Bruce et al , Sayyad Abdi, , Sayyad Abdi et al, ). Elham will describe a qualitative investigation into immigrants' experience of “information use to learn” and how the analysis was used to inform the design of enabling interventions (e.g.…”

The current information environment provides many options for individuals in finding information and acquiring resources. It is increasingly necessary for Information Science (IS) researchers to employ user‐centered research methods in order to better identify individuals' information behaviors within their contextual worlds. This panel will provide an overview of some of the novel user‐centered research methods being used globally in information research within various contexts. Focusing on some recent innovative projects ranging from information discovery and access, refugee information behaviors, and cyberbullying, to personal health information management, the panel will examine the benefits, challenges, and implications for IS researchers. The panel will have an interactive component for participants to learn how to incorporate new methodologies in innovative ways within their research to make new meaning from their user studies.

“…Although building upon longitudinal North American studies that demonstrated the efficacy of information-centred (Bruce et al, 2017) and systems-focused (Checkland, 2011) design activities in the workplace (e.g. Mirijamdotter and Somerville, 2009;Somerville, 2009Somerville, , 2015cSomerville and Mirijamdotter, 2014), this UBT initiative commenced at a graduate level systems analysis, design and modelling course 2 that aimed to ultimately redesign university educational experience.…”

Making Local Knowledge Visible: The Case of the University for Business and Technology in Kosovo

A vision to further national development through higher education now informs planning for the University for Business and Technology Knowledge Center. At its essence, the Center aims to make local knowledge visible through furthering discovery of and access to research content produced by academic students and university professors on institutional, local and international levels. This paper reports on conceptual exploration of this institutional idea during spring semester 2017 in a graduate course on systems thinking and methodology. Using active learning pedagogy to improve local situations, an international teaching team facilitated student and stakeholder engagement in participatory design activities using soft systems methodology tools and techniques. Course evaluation outcomes revealed students' improved levels of knowledge and development of insights. In addition, their course work demonstrated their advanced understanding of systems thinking and its application. Furthermore, students expressed high motivation to learn more about other human‐centred theories and participatory design tools. In considering the value of the University's knowledge vision, they were especially enthusiastic about its implications for furthering national democratic development in Kosovo and regional economic growth in south‐eastern Europe. © 2018 The Authors.

“…Az információs túlterhelés szempontjából nem lényegtelen, hogy ebben a keretben információ alatt bármilyen, egy adott kontextusban informáló élményt érthetünk, tehát lehet tény, elmélet, modell, hang, testbeszéd vagy éppen tudományos eredmény, amely keletkezhet a természetben vagy a virtuális világban (Bruce et al 2017).…”

A tanulmány egyaránt kitér a túlterhelés kialakulásának okaira és történetére. Nagy súlyt helyez annak tárgyalására, hogy miként enyhíthe-tők szimptómái technológiai jellegű és (főként) társa-dalmi természetű megközelítések adta eszközökkel. Az előbbiek szinte kizárólag az információépítészet megoldásai közül kerülnek ki, míg az utóbbiaknak három főbb útja van. Talán a legelterjedtebb az "új írástudások" propagálása, oktatása és alkalmazása, de élhetünk a szemé-lyes információkezelés eszközeivel, vagy követhetjük az új típusú információs viselkedési normákat is, amelyek elsősorban a Lassú Mozgalom (Slow Movement) elveire és gyakorlatára épülnek. Kulcsszavak: információs túlterhelés, információépíté-szet, új írástudások, személyes információkezelés, lassú elvekInformation overload is one of the "pathologies" in our present information environment that causes difficulties in several fields and in varied ways. Nonetheless, it can be "cured". This paper explains both the causes of Information Overload and its history. It points out that there are various ways of mitigating the symptoms of Information Overload when taking both technical and social approaches. The former of these are limited almost exclusively to the scope and capabilities of information architecture, while social approaches have many directions. The approaches that are perhaps the most prolific are propagating, teaching and applying "new literacies", but we can make use of Personal Information Management skills, and can follow new norms of information behaviour, based mainly on the principles and practice of the Slow Movement.
